The Unassuming Mason Wilde Chapter 141
Mason was enraged, pissed off, he could not believe what he had just heard, but in a way he could also believe it exactly. Jason had struck for the last time, Mason thought angrily. Jason Rodney had always been stupid in ways even Mason could not fathom. The man was oblivious with his head constantly stuck in the clouds. He was so self absorbed that he failed to see that the woman he wanted to spend the rest of his life with was an error on so many levels, but no one would tell him. Mason had always wanted to deal with Jason so severely but had had to hold back for his darling wife's sake. Although if this had happened way before now, he would not have hesitated to deal with Jason as terribly as he pleased, but Scarlett had been so sensitive lately, that Mason had felt that perhaps this was not the right time to do anything to send her over the edge again.He loved Scarlett that much, but due to Jason's stupidity, his whole life was at stake, everyone suddenly wanted him to prove so

Jason had begun to think that perhaps his mother was right when Emerald showed at his door looking glamorous just the way he liked it, and what looked like bags of groceries in her hands, his fantasy came to life, and that made him very suspicious.“Well are you just going to stand there and stare at me, or are you going to invite me in?” Emerald stated provocatively, enjoying the gobsmacked look on her face.Jason blinked at her uselessly, and Emerald began to wish she had never come, perhaps she was overdoing it?“Fine then, I'll just go back.” She shrugged nonchalantly and turned back, and Jason immediately snapped out of it as he watched her leave. “Sorry.” He muttered as he shifted aside, allowing the door to open a little bit more. “Come on in.” Emerald immediately bounced in, and gave Jason a small peck on the cheek, reluctant to ruin her lipstick, but she knew he did not mind it, it was something she had been doing for years after all.“But what's the occasion?” Jason asked
The Unassuming Mason Wilde Chapter 144
Scarlett moved forward before Jason could do or say anything about it, and struck her hand heavily against the side of his face, and Jason had never been more stunned in his life as he held onto his cheeks and glared at Scarlett with disbelief.“What the hell is going on here?!” Emerald yelled as she walked into the scene, and her eyes immediately narrowed as she saw Scarlett standing there with heaving chest, she stalked towards her slowly, but Scarlett did not barge in, only to go back down as she stared at both of them angrily.“My question exactly!” Scarlett yelled back as she prowled towards Emerald, and her eyes reflected confusion, but Emerald was a con artist and Scarlett was not buying the act one bit.“You connived with my cousin here to ruin my husband's name, didn't you?” Scarlett accused, and Emerald's eyes faltered to the ground for a brief moment, a very brief moment, but Scarlett was quick to catch it as she shifted back from them, shaking her head slowly.“You better

Mason could not help the rage that coursed through his entire being as he listened to Madam Rodney speak, she revealed a lot of things, some things he perhaps wished were never revealed at all.He could not even believe his ears most of the time, and had to constantly stop her to ask questions.“Wait, did you just say we were not always this wealthy?” Mason asked in shock and she nodded with a sad and nostalgic smile on her lips. Mason was confused, he had no idea what to make of her tales, he could not bring himself to trust her, not now.“If you do not believe me then you can always confirm my words.” Madam Rodney offered, and Mason narrowed his eyes and name nodded for her to continue which she at least managed to do to her credit.“I made a deal with your parents, it was a bad deal guaranteed to go wrong even before it started, your parents agreed to it because they trusted me.” She narrated, and at this point Mason was seeing red, as he leaped from his seat and leaned over to her

Mason left her immediately. He had gotten what he had wanted with the promise to keep her locked up forever, and it was a promise he intended to keep. He was sick to his stomach after hearing everything, and he frankly had no idea what to do now. He had never thought his life was in so much danger until it had actually been.The news went crazy, reporters started tailing Mason wherever he went, and the police insisted on having a swat team with him every minute of the day.Mason had been reluctant to take the chaos and pandemonium back to his mansion, and had refrained from going back there for the past few weeks, with a message to Scarlett to also lay low for the time being.One thing he had come to realize was that no matter the situation, he could never hate Scarlett, it was just not in his DNA. He still loved her to pieces and wanted her protected from the chaos he was currently experiencing.For the first time in years Mason mourned his parents again, but this time he did it with

Mason stared at Ric standing beside him disheveled, and it gave him a small amount of pleasure before anger overwhelmed him, and he breathed through his nose to steady himself.“What do you want?” He asked Ric, and Ric noted the ice in his veins, suddenly it occurred to his entitled self that this was not going to be an easy task, he had been quite sure that stomping over to Mason's office would solve his problems, but judging by the unexpected hostility, well Ric was quite taken aback.“I need your help.” It physically pained him to say the words, he was not used to asking for anything, he was used to commanding it, and asking for help of any kind was absolutely abhorred. But right at that moment, he knew quite well that he was at the verge of being disowned, he knew his father meant every word he had said at that moment.He had seen his father through many moods, he had been able to discern his every step along the way, but it had been different last night, there was rage surroundi

Waiting felt like eternity, but Mason was just simply grateful to have his friend there even if he had persuaded them to return home but was promptly ignored of course. He was still glad. Glad he did not have to go through something like this alone, it would have been a nightmare to be honest.Mason stared at the time, the surgery had been going on for about two hours now, but he refused to think negatively, he could not really afford it, so he sat still and told himself that they were only doing what needed to be done.He picked up the drink Young had bought finally, he needed to stay hydrated, so he threw it down his throat, grimacing in the process as it burned him while going down. And he sniffed, his throat dry, he did not like that so much time had passed by it was becoming worrisome.“Don't worry. It sometimes takes this long you know.” Young offered and Mason nodded at him with a grateful smile, his friends were everything. He had no idea how he would have survived the turmoil

Through the bright haze of pain Scarlett could hear the nurses gasp as something got stuck, she knew that the atmosphere had changed, she was a sensitive person, so from the start of the labor itself she was already harboring terrible fears, and it seemed they were going to come through after all.The nurses tried their best to reassure her, they were the best in the business they said, all she needed to do was relax, it would be alright soon, but how could she? How could she relax when she felt herself losing strength by the minute. It was a terrible feeling, the weakness started from her head, sounds strange? Well that was exactly how it started, it started from her head and spread down slowly, leaving behind a terrible trail.She opened her mouth slowly and looked at the nurse, pleading with her eyes for her to come closer.“Mason.” Scarlett whispered pathetically and the woman sighed and patted her hand before leaning down.“Mr Wilde is out talking with the doctor ma'am, they are

“Ahhhhhh!” Scarlett's cries echoed down the hall where Mason was asked to stay as he paced with his friends, they were all thinking the same thing, if she was not in freaking labor, then why was she screaming so much, the sound was already Making Mason agitated. He could not hear it, and the more he paced with his face scrunched up in worry, the more worried his friends became.“I think we should try a different hospital.” Mark finally voiced out from where he sat with his head in his hands, and Mason's eyes immediately snapped to him in concern.“Why? What do you think is wrong with this one?” He asked anxiously, and Young immediately spoke over Mark, glaring at him to keep shut as he spoke.“Absolutely nothing Mason, do not listen to Mark, listen to good things only.” He cautioned, and Mark frowned but said nothing.Immediately he heard this, Mason's worst fear was confirmed and he stood to rush into the room Scarlett was in taking deep breaths with the nurse, her hair already matte

Scarlett had been trained for such a situation, the water may most likely break in the middle of the night, they said, it happens to a lot of women, so fear not, they had advised, keep a calm head despite the heat of the moment and think rational thoughts, they had counseled.But Scarlett was in the heat of the moment, and ration was the least thing in her mind, not when she felt so anxious. The fact that the babies were not kicking her the night prior, and the fact that Mason was at ease with the company around him encouraged her to dismiss the nurses from hovering around her all night, she insisted she was alright, and with Mason being too distracted to pay attention, there was little they could do.But now she wished she could take it all back, the pain was back and back with a vengeance, with a crippling force that she could only gasp and hold her stomach. She was even afraid to move as the ground was slippery beneath her after her water broke. Scarlett was totally unprepared for

Scarlett woke up from her nap, and was pleasantly surprised to hear Mason laughing downstairs. He never seemed to laugh anymore, and just followed her anxiously with his eyes, his legs practically vibrating with the force of stopping them from jumping up and helping her.But now she heard him laughing, something so carefree in his laughter that it brought a smile to her lips as she got to her feet with the help of the nurse that was previously knitting a hat in a corner of the room.She had only agreed to let her stay in the bedroom because she found it extremely difficult to pick herself up from the bed after laying on it, she was like a proper whale now.“You know Mason, worrying till he could not anymore had always been his motto.” Mark laughed, and they all echoed it, each recounting a time when Mason almost killed himself with worry for no reason, and Mason sipped at the drink with a laugh, feeling thoroughly chagrined.*My God!” Young said softly and in awe as he stared at a th

Mason watched Scarlett gradually increase in size, and he had no idea what to feel, but one was sure though, the sight was dreadfully daunting. She was slim and fit one moment, and the next she was dragging her belly that had grown so big along that Mason was genuinely terrified that she might topple over one day, it was becoming a most genuine concern at that point.He was always hovering around and above her like a shadow, and knew that she was not pleased with it, but to Mason ever since she turned into an inflated balloon, she lost the right to decide what was best for her.The stay at home nurses he employed for her sake were paid to hover around her when he could not, and at that point Scarlett was venturing into crazy land.Mason knew that she was frustrated with his behavior, but he could not help it. She looked so tiny compared to her huge stomach that he felt the need to do something, anything, as this was partially his fault.He knew she said Children were blessings and tha

The two bewildered couple stared at the doctor in bewilderment for a solid thirty seconds. They did not understand a thing he had just said, and he only seemed to be smiling, Scarlett leaned closer to Mason.The doctor could see that they were having difficulties with coming to terms with the news, it was always like that with new parents after all, they were almost always shocked before the excitement kicked in.*You are having twins.” He said again, just to make sure he was clear, and the couple stiffened up as Scarlett slowly, very slowly looked up at her husband.“He said twins, Mason.” She whispered, and Mason turned to look down at her with a dazed nod, before turning to the doctor.“Show us.” He said, almost as if he did not quite believe it, and the good doctor nodded before resuming his roaming on Scarlett's stomach.“This is, should we say baby one?” He asked with a smile, and Mason nodded with watery eyes, at this point he was literally shaking, so much that Scarlett had to

Scarlett was quite happy with how well everything had turned out, the peacefulness of it was a bonus point as well. She was dreading the thought of a war as that had been what she had been experiencing for quite sometime now.So when she watched the gentlemen and their raucous ladies board the jets once again to take them back to their various continents she could help but ease up a sigh of relief.She looked at Mason with appreciation, and could see the relief in his eyes as well, he was as relieved as she was and perhaps even more so, ever since he found out that she was pregnant, all he had seem able to do was worry and fret, and as endearing as it was, Scarlet was getting quite worried about his mental health.Her hands drifted to her almost still flat belly and felt the little bulge that had pushed itself up a few days ago. She could not help but caress it now as it felt like she was shielding her baby from the world.She doubted even her husband had noticed the baby bump, should

Mason watched them carefully so as to be able to spot any looks of concern or shock or just anything that told him that they were unaware of this unfortunate news, Mason scoffed.*You do not seem surprised.” He said to them and Jonathan shrugged as he looked at him with a gaze straight from hell in all its mischief and grizt.“Listen, pretending to be surprised would be a lie and a cowardly action.” Rhode said with a straight forward and Mason venomously, even he was surprised by the depths of his anger, it felt unquenchable.“Your parents killed mine.” Mason said, no more point in hiding it, he came right out with it and said it, they both nodded.“They caused the car crash that happened, it was organized by them, and done so that no one would be able to escape.” Rhode said and Mason flinched back.“I cannot just let you both leave.” Mason said desperately, he didn't want to harm them, but at the same time was terrified of allowing them to walk away.“We were supposed to kill you as
